Long Inadvertent Poems

“Tessellate” 

on the surface
it’s easy to see
we tessellate

inadvertent 
decorative ostentatious
flirtatious lives taking risks 

with the other sides
planned strategic functional 
quantity rich quality lacking

Human

our words our ways
opposites 
like magnets attract, it all fits 

we think it...

Shayna Punim - You came a long way baby!

Though negligible communication
now transpires between us
twenty seven years ago
come February fourth,
two thousand and twenty five,
our lives (affecting yours truly
and that of mother, plus Eden
a caring older sister)
irrevocably...

Approbation Deeded Gratuitously Just Because...

(this endeavor more self directed to progeny,
whose psyche wounded, strafed, and nicked.)

Early Poems XIV

Am I
by Michael R. Burch

Am I inconsequential;
do I matter not at all?
Am I just a snowflake,
to sparkle, then to fall?

Am I only chaff?
Of what use am I?
Am I just a feeble flame,
to flicker,...

Ratify Femininity to the nation grown from women			
Women born and bred yet they still deny

What happens when you untie
a ribbon in the sky?
And for all the known reasons
for rain, you still cannot
reconcile why
 these all-to-familiar
tears must be cried.

and find joy in the wind,
direct your...

Written: By Tom Wright
11/28/00  

In our youth,
many desire to dance with life.
Cognizant of,  that at some point,
the dance will end and the Piper paid,
yet we procrastinate.
Life holds each culpable for our...

I. The Lost

The sting of pain
It never leaves!
My heart

It lingers…
So vastly!
So deeply!
And the internal tears
They continue too!

Persistent
Falling without a sound
Abiding here
Still
Until, they are found

Begrudgingly to quit
Deliberate they fall
Drip…drip……drip
Like blood from a letting
Into the abyss

Reaching through...

Jurassic Prayer

By Mark D. Stucky
We asked our preschooler to pray,
and with dinner plates before us
and our hands folded,
he paused in silence
and then roared in imitation
of a wounded, angry dinosaur.
We all laughed at the incongruous “prayer”
from...

When thoughts become obsessive,
is my heart being made redundant,
laid off, cast off, sent astray 
recycled pulse rates mere skip hire fodder,
atrophied organ sinking into deep morass,
panic stricken warning notice object,
abject  part indigenous scarred,
or scared...

a book …

waits a gaze …
to feed the hungry
starvation by ignorance and ill ids
(neglect, the inadvertent symptom, devouring)
it has done so for time immeasurable -
edges faded to sepia and
ragged as a vagrant
but formidable, nonetheless …

be sure to tell your doctor,

I can't recall
how long I have been desolated,
and rejected by all,
living within these cement walls,
emanating wishes unheard by anyone;
staying indolent and thoughtless
with this soul gnashing:
so futile and drawn...

protected by loneliness,

i do not know you now
the dark roots of your love penetrate

If lines and verse are indeed
the tool's we poet's are to use

process of one's inner soul

Then surely love should capture
an inadvertent overture of subtleties,
tenderness and kindness

And on the other hand...
